friend? He clicked through the links, plugging in her name and address, hoping for a pho-

tograph (just so he could look at it and assure himself that she was nothing special). No pic-

ture showed up: just images of her greeting cards, a set of dessert plates, the spoon rest

she’d mentioned. Jordan wiped his mouth with a paper napkin, picked up his phone, and

dialed the number Addie had given him. Mr. Duncan, the Walgreens manager, put him on

hold to check the time sheets and, a minute later, came back on the line, sounding apologetic.

“Jon was scheduled to work last night, but it doesn’t look like he showed up.”

Jordan thanked the man for his help, got to his feet, waved at Hol y, who was on the

phone, fished a handful of chocolates from Paula’s bowl, and made his way back to his car.

Ten minutes later, he was on the corner of Main Street and Crescent Drive. He popped a kiss

into his mouth and sat relaxed, his hands open on his legs, breathing steadily, eyes trained on

the street. Five minutes later, an ancient green station wagon sagging on four half-flat tires

came squealing around the corner. There was a blonde behind the wheel, another woman,

with her head covered, in the passenger’s seat. The car stal ed, backfired once, belched a

cloud of oily smoke, and puttered off toward downtown. Jon wouldn’t

hurt a fly. We’l just see about that, he thought, and started off after the station wagon.
